On Thursday September 7th, I walked in on some of the clubs set up in booths encouraging people to sign up. I just happened to come across a booth for the school newspaper called The Ticker. I thought that this would be something good for me to join because of my love of current events and writing. I spoke with two girls and signed up for an email list using a google form. In this form I put what I what be interested in doing be it editing or contributing to articles or pictures. I found it really easy and I even had the choice between what types of articles I would write. There where categories such as science, the arts, opinion etc. The possibilities were really endless and I found that comforting. I didn’t have to feel stuck doing one particular thing all the time or feeling that I had a small selection of topics that I could talk about. The girls there were really nice and seemed really interested in getting others to participate in writing for the newspaper. They clearly explained to me what the newspaper was about and how to actually contribute. I thought that was pretty cool and I look forward to learning more in the emails that I will receive and the different things I could choose to write about in articles. They even gave me a wristband and a lanyard. I look forward to receiving emails and possibly working on articles for the school. I had no idea that it would be this easy to join a student program in the school. However, in the future I would like to join a club that allowed me to meet up and be social with others. I am excited to see the rest of the clubs this month on the 28th.
